Production

Don Hall was presented with the idea of returning to the world of Big Hero 6 via Baymax and to see "what he was created to do". He added that it was unique to focus exclusively on the character as he felt that Big Hero 6: The Series did a good job focusing on the cast as a whole. Cirocco Dunlap stated that a recurring theme in the series is "denial". Each character refuses help from Baymax, which causes more harm to their health both physical and mental. It is only through Baymax's intervention that they finally accept the problem they are facing.

The third episode "Sofia", tackles the concept of menstruation, which Dunlap aimed to explain was not something to be ashamed of, while the fourth episode "Mbita", focuses on fish allergies. The team struggled to show the severity of it, while also trying to make the episode enjoyable. Also, unlike the movie which is categorized as a superhero film, the series was viewed more as a medical procedural.

The series reuses the same assets as the film, but due to the improved technology, the data had to be treated and tested for bugs.

Trivia

• With the focus on Baymax and the Hamada family of Hiro and Aunt Cass, Hiro's friends do not appear in the series.
• Baymax! has the distinction of being the first television series to be produced by Walt Disney Animation Studios. Previous animated TV series based on Disney's animated films have been produced by Disney Television Animation and other divisions.
• This is the second TV series to be based on Big Hero 6 after the series with the same name.
  • This also makes Big Hero 6 the seventh Disney franchise/film to have more than one television series based on the films of the franchise itself, the first six being The Jungle Book (TaleSpin and Jungle Cubs), Lilo & Stitch (which has three of them; Lilo & Stitch: The Series, Stitch!, and Stitch & Ai), The Lion King (Timon & Pumbaa and The Lion Guard), Winnie the Pooh (which has four of them; Welcome to Pooh Corner, The New Adventures of Winnie the Pooh, The Book of Pooh, and My Friends Tigger & Pooh), 'One Hundred and One Dalmatians (101 Dalmatians: The Series and 101 Dalmatian Street), and Alice in Wonderland (Adventures in Wonderland and Alice's Wonderland Bakery).
• The series was banned in the Middle East as well as some (Eastern and Oriental) Orthodox countries due to the series featuring LGBTQ characters.
• This is the first Walt Disney Animation Studios production to be re-used the same assets from the previous films, and the first production to reused the models.
  • This is also the first Walt Disney Animation Studios production that the character models or designs to be updated.
• This series implies (but doesn't confirm) that the Lucky Cat Café was originally owned/operated by Hiro and Tadashi's parents, but after they passed away, Cass took control of the café (along with assuming guardianship of her nephews).
